earn how to make teas from herbs. Check out your archery prowess. And listen to music by Mark Mueller and Good JuJu and the Hurdy Gurdy Girls at Saturday’s Fall Festival 2013. The free festival will be held from noon to 4 p.m. at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden, a few miles south of Ketchum at Highway 75 and Gimlet Road. “It’s designed to celebrate summer’s bounty and welcome fall to the Valley,” said Laura Musbach Drake, the garden’s associate director. “We want to bring the community together, enjoy the garden’s beauty and give people a chance to see our new plantings.” There will be a variety of demonstrations ranging from fermenting foods to creating art every 15 minutes to a half-hour. Oliver Whitcomb will offer a martial arts demonstration, along with opportunities to try archery. Stella Stockton will offer tai chi; Deb Gelet, garden flag making; and Manon Gaudreau, a home food dehydration demo. Kids can make cider the old-fashioned way with a cider press. Vendors will include Bear Hands Farms, Bella Bite Nutrition Bars, divine Wine Bar, Mason Cakes, NourishMe, Rooted in Nature, Sun Valley Brewery, Toni’s Ice Cream, Dori Tunney with her grass-fed local beef and Lillian and Charlies Wiegard’s wood products. There’ll be face painting, as well as arts and crafts for kids led by Boulder Mountain Clayworks, Footlight Dance Centre, Nurture, The Bead Shop, The Mountain School and Trailing of the Sheep. Good JuJu and the Hurdy Gurdy Girls will perform their folksy music from noon to 1 p.m.; Mark Mueller will play acoustic folk from 2 to 4 p.m. The crowning event will be an herbal tea workshop led by Darcy Williamson, a herbalist from McCall who has written two dozen books, including “The Rocky Mountain Wild Foods Cookbook” and “Healing Plants of the Rocky Mountains.” The workshop is free but space is limited; participants need to register ahead of time at 208726-9358. Missing the pumpkin chucking? No fear. Drake said that will come later—the Saturday after Halloween when area pumpkins are used and spent and ready for pitching. tws
Edward Villella danced for President Kennedy’s inauguration and danced for Presidents Johnson, Nixon and Ford. He produced the PBS series “Dance in America” and won an Emmy for his TV production of “Harlequinade.”
Ice Theatre of New York Features Piece by Edward Villella STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
E
dward Villella wore his baseball uniform over his ballet tights, his ball cap on his head and his ball mitt in his hand as he climbed the two-story walkup to the School of American Ballet in Manhattan. Just to be on the safe side, he made the trip backwards. It wouldn’t have done for his playmates in the Italian neighborhood of Queens to see 8-year-old Eddie, as he was known then, going to ballet class. Flash forward several years and this scrappy brash kid was being touted as the greatest male ballet dancer America ever produced, proving to his sandlot chums that ballet isn’t just for sissies. Villella has created a tizzy in Sun Valley’s ice skating and dance community the past two weeks as he’s worked with Ice Theatre of New York to infuse ballet elements into a romantic piece about unattainable love that he and Doug Webster choreographed to Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s “Orchestral Suite No. 3 in G’s Elegie.”
Members of Ice Theatre of New York practice a lift featuring Sun Valley skater Kim Navarro for their upcoming performance of Edward Villella’s “Reverie.”
Their “Reverie,” as they call it, will premiere during a free ice show at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 2 at Sun Valley’s outdoor ice rink before Ice Theatre takes it on the road and back to New York. “Edward is an American dance treasure. He not only was the former principal ballet dancer of the New York City Ballet under George Balanchine, but he and his wife Linda—a skater—started Miami City Ballet, bringing it to international status,” said Hilarie Neely, director of
Footlight Dance. Now 77, Villella has two hip replacements, bad knees and a back that he says looks like the drive along the Amalfi Coast, given his misaligned vertebrae. And, he says, he’s lost a few inches from the days when he was performing grand jetes, or splits in the air. But he didn’t let any of that hold him back last week as he stood at the edge of the ice rink swaying his body and arms

hey’ve been called “pirates of the prairie,” “a mix between the Avett Brothers and Devotchka,” “vagabond rock.” They call themselves Hectic Hobo—a reference to their oldtime vagabond style, high-energy performance and the tough predicaments the characters find themselves in in their intricate story songs. They call their music “Wild West gypsy rock” because of its mix between old-story country music and Eastern opium den minor key music. “I love the dark melodies of Eastern gypsy music,” said Hasen Cone, the spokesman for the group. “They are tempting and provocative. They smell of war and smoke and passion. I also love stories that portray the human experience in a way that gives voice to the voiceless, glorifies the underdog and offers hope to the downtrodden. But I also love the tales of murder, mischief and mayhem. I think that’s the troublemaker in me coming through.” Hasen and his Hectic Hobos will bring their tales of mischief

We use guitars, accordion, drums, piano, fiddle, bass saw and a trash table—you’ll have to see it for yourself,” said Cone. “The instrumentation is interesting, the energy is engaging, and the Hobos are happy to be there!” Cone is a Utah State graduate now living in Salt Lake City. When he missed the bands like he used to play with in college, he decided to put together a band offering the storytelling linage of Marty Robbins, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, but with more rocking energy. “Our blend of genres is different and exciting, at least to me,” Cone said. “There’s obviously a strong folk revival that’s been going on in recent years. We are part of that but not fully submerged in it. Folk-wise, we mix West with East, but we also use electric guitars and pounding drums to incite a riot of rock energy. Also, our lyrics tend to tell strange stories in interesting ways.” tws

They do everything from an original tune called “Love like a Fire” to “Monkey on My Back” to an acoustic version of the Happy Camp song. “The most unique thing about the band is the end product of the music, as every member has different influences,” said Baker.

Oktoberfest Gives Crowd a Taste of German Fun Page 8
ast week I wrote about the role of oceans in long-term climate change. In the process I had to omit one surprising fact. One thing I like about hard science (or an in-depth look at any discipline) is that it contains surprises—those ‘Eureka!’ moments that filter down to our day-to-day lives. We’ve been told over and over again that the small rise in ocean levels is and will be driven by melting polar ice. Not even close. A few years ago I was camped on the shore of Torrey Lake, not far from Dubois, Wyoming. Great fishing. Trailheads led to Mount Gannett and the northern Fitzpatrick wilderness of the Wind River Range. I was there to look at the unique petroglyphs of the Shoshone on the north side of a string of lakes. Tent campers tend to rise early, and so I noticed that there was a ‘tide line.’ The lake level was below where it was the previous afternoon. I had read that this was due to a change in the surface water temperature. During the warmth of the day the water expands, then retreats at night. When I pointed this out to an otherwise knowledgeable companion, she just said, ‘That can’t be true.’ In the ensuing years, not for one minute did I apply this simple principle of physics to the oceans.
Nowadays, measuring ocean surface temperatures doesn’t rely on buckets. We use satellite measurements along with buoys. The first 700 meters of the ocean surface has warmed some, with the top 100m having warmed the most. This tells us that the ocean is not yet contributing to global warming because it has not cooled. It is not yet giving up the heat it is absorbing. Water level rises correlate perfectly with surface water temperature increases. On charts, the uptrend is a 45-degree angle. Water levels have risen 20cm, or about 7 inches, since the mid19th century. In the last decade, the rise has accelerated from 2mm to 3mm per year. If CO2 levels continue to rise past the 500 parts per million, the corresponding 3-degree Centigrade rise in temperature will raise water levels by over 4 feet. This will be caused by thermal expansion alone, without contribution from polar ice. The still-distant threat is the melting of the polar ice sheets; namely, the Greenland ice sheet, and the ice sheets of East and West Antarctica. Whether that will occur is still a matter of speculation. In a worst-case scenario, that melting would add about 250 feet to ocean levels. Scientists are hoping that the increased water vapor in the atmosphere will condense as snow

and so actually contribute to polar ice growth, not decline. This has happened in the distant past as a part of nature’s self-correcting process. Only time will tell, because there are a lot of new inputs to the formulas. The greatest consequence of melting sea ice (as opposed to ice over land) in the fabled Northwest Passage will be for foreign policy and competition for drilling rights between at least eight countries. Us bleeding hearts can worry about the polar bears. The valley’s Kathleen Cameron had a great Facebook post

It’s A Bird! No, It’s a Gaggle Of Them T his year, when you hear that distinctive calling, look up! Flocks of Canada geese, ducks and Sandhill cranes on the wing inspire the question: where are they all headed, and why? Bird migration is a wondrous fall phenomenon, and one that is still not fully understood. This seasonal movement of birds is often interpreted as a way to avoid harsh weather. That view is not the whole story. Migration most likely evolved as a way for birds to exploit resources, such as fruits or insects, that are seasonally abundant and avoid times and places where resources are scarce. Most birds are well equipped to handle cold temperatures (feathers are one of nature’s best insulators), but when they have no food, birds must move on. The tiny black-capped chickadee may seem vulnerable to cold due to its small size, yet it remains here the entire winter, feeding on nuts and seeds still available throughout the forests. Most raptors, like hawks, must

What About This? How About That? BY CHRIS MILLSPAUGH
W
hat a summer. What a year. What a time of this and that. Now, it is autumn, beautiful autumn, time to figure out where we’re at. (How poetic – awkward, grammatically incorrect, yet true.) What about this? We just got through a forest fire that was more than twice the size of the Castle Rock Fire only six years ago. However, we’re safe now and only one structure was lost. How about that? What about this? My favorite baseball team, the Seattle Mariners, who I predicted would make the playoffs this year, have lost 20 games more than they have won this season. However, mercifully, there are only a mere six remaining games to play. How about that? What about this? My favorite pro football team, the Washington Redskins, has lost their first three games of the season. However, the quarterback is getting healthy and the coach has not been fired. How about that? What about this? The mer-
chants of the Wood River Valley lost a lot of money last summer because of the fire. However, the winter ski season is just two months away, promising a time to get well, again. How about that? What about this? So far this year I’ve earned the least amount of money I ever have before outside my four years in the U.S. Air Force some 50 years ago. However, I’m still working, have two vehicles for the first time and a pantry full of food. How about that? What about this? Our “do-nothing“ Congress seems to be in a mess and says no to everything. However, they may close down in a couple of weeks. How about that? What about this? I have a healthy family, great friends, am living in a place that I love and have never had so much freedom in my life. I’m a happy man. It hasn’t been the best of times, but, certainly, not the worst. How about that? Take heart, everyone. Nice talking to you. tws

Herbal Syrup Class This Thursday Sylvie Dore will teach an Herbal Syrup-Making class from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 26 at NourishMe in Ketchum. Learn to craft homemade elderberry syrup and herbal cough syrup for kids and adults from simple herbs and ingredients you may already have at home. Elderberry is considered to be a potent antiviral remedy and immune-system stimulant. Though it does not kill viruses directly, ingesting the berry syrup helps block viruses’ ability to reproduce, vastly decreasing symptoms and length of time the
body can take to clear the invading organism, especially when caught early. Elderberry is full of antioxidants and can be taken safely on a daily basis starting in early fall to prevent colds and flu. Elderberry trees can be found in the Wood River Valley and berries will be ready to harvest soon. The $25 class includes: elder medicine, folklore and harvesting techniques; other local herbs for immunity; syrup-making demonstration; and a locally made ColdCare tincture to take home. To sign up, e-mail Dore at redwoodfairy@hotmail.com
The Magic Of Fall “I breathe in and I am the flower. I breathe out and I have its freshness.” –Zen meditation BY ROSEMARY CODY
E
very day we breathe. We inhale air in its most primitive form into our lungs, extracting oxygen and moving it, via our bloodstreams, to every cell in our bodies. We exhale, Rosemary Cody returning carbon dioxide to the environment, giving life to plants. Every day we eat. We ingest food, converting raw materials into energy for bodily functions. With peristalsis, the large intestine expands and contracts—another form of breathing, really— as it separates the pure from the impure. In Chinese medicine, the lungs and large intestine are the organs associated with the season of fall. The gift of fall, as seen through this paradigm, is this: We constantly—either consciously or unconsciously— engage in alchemy and magic, distilling what is pure from its coarsest form. With every breath we take, with every bite we eat, we participate in the creative intelligence of the universe. E=MC2. Every day we convert energy into matter, matter into energy. All the wonders that go on in our outer environment go on inside us as well. Chinese medicine teaches
that “tuning in” to the current season, syncing with its energy, promotes health and wellbeing. In the fall this wisdom directs us to nourish our lungs and colons and recognize the value of taking in and letting go, of attaching and releasing (and doing so without harm.) Like the alchemist, we become skilled in extracting what is pure, releasing what is wasteful. Breathe in abundance; let go of restriction. Take in gratitude; release unhealthy attachments. Inhale love; exhale fear. To align with fall, schedule an acupuncture tune-up. Take a yoga class that focuses on breath. Meditate with the intention of releasing destructive thought patterns. Here are two more tangible things you can do, starting today: Choose foods that protect the lungs and large intestine. Pungent foods help disperse mucous, a common imbalance of these organs. A professor at UCLA Medical School reports that cigarette-smoking Hispanics have fewer respiratory problems than their Caucasian counterparts. Bring on the chili peppers! And reduce consumption of mucous-forming foods like dairy. Eat more dark-green vegetables. Rich in beta carotene, they protect the linings of these organs while their chlorophyll assists the lungs in clearing the residues of smoke inhalation. To enrich your knowledge of nutrition, read “Healing With Whole Foods” by Paul Pitchford, especially chapter 27. Pack your mental emergency bag. During the Beaver Creek Fire many of us gathered our

most valuable items and fled our homes. We grabbed passports, computers, documents and picture albums. We pared down to the basics. Now that the fire is extinguished, consider what thoughts and attitudes best guide your way. Which ones bring peace and laughter to you and those around you? Write down the list of your top five and read it daily. Make it part of you wherever you go. Don’t wait for an emergency to remind you of what’s important. Breathe deeply the crisp air. (You may notice the smell of snow approaching.) Eat fresh local food. And revel in the everyday magic of fall.

SUN VALLEY HARVEST FESTIVAL
It’s Foodie Heaven STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
T
he Sun Valley Harvest Festival seemed the perfect antidote for a town that emptied out in the middle of August’s Beaver Creek Fire. Foodies from as far away as Philadelphia and Miami flooded into town over the weekend to sample Idaho’s bounty and learn new ways to enjoy their food. As they did, organizers Heidi Ottley and Ed Sinnott learned that Fodor’s had named their festival among its Top 10 Fall Festivals. “I’m amazed. I’m shocked. I’m thrilled,” said Ottley. The noshing started with Hemp Hearts and organic vodka infused with basil and cucumber at the Food Maverick Panel Thursday afternoon and continued with a variety of food producers lined up in the aisles at Atkinsons’ Market Friday afternoon. Tasters marveled at Camp Robber marshmallows that tasted like s’mores when toasted and a young boy couldn’t believe his good fortune that Toni’s Ice Cream was handing out free samples of passionfruit and coconut ice cream. A sell-out crowd of 450 hit the streets a few hours later to take part in a moving feast between 19 Ketchum restaurants and caterers. Megan and Kieran Gallagher, two Jackson Hole residents in town to celebrate Megan’s birthday, left the wine tasting on the square early to study the map as they plotted their Restaurant Walk. “I think we’ll go to the far end and walk back,” said Megan. “We did this last year and it was such fun. We got to walk around and have little bites as opposed to sitting while you eat.” The walking diners found plenty of little—and some big— bites along the way, ranging from The Sawtooth Club’s Oregon-grown baby quail basted in a bourbon, honey and jalapeño glaze to Sweet Crumb’s champagne passionfruit cupcakes and The Moose Girls’ pumpkin/sweet potato/apple soup. “This is real artichoke dip,” said one of a bevy of food writers from the International Food Wine and Travel Association who circled Cristina’s spread taking pictures. “I had too much fun,” said Ketchum resident Beth Willis as she showed up for an early morning cooking class on Saturday. “Beautiful weather and a wonderful assortment of food.”
Wait—there’s more… A day’s worth of chefs’ classes gave way to more food and drink than anyone could handle at the Boots, Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Party on the deck of B. Restaurant. A cowboy from Park City handed out shots of High West whiskey while others simply partook of lemonade laced with whiskey. Dewey, Pickett and Howe picked out bluegrass tunes while chef John Beriker kept the food staff churning out an array of barbecue from around the world, including chicken adobo; shrimp, chicken and beef satays; Szechuan rack of lamb and baby back pork ribs. “The price point was right. The food was right. It sounded like fun,” said Dori Tunney, who enjoyed the evening overlooking Bald Mountain with Craig Delagardelle and Christine and Stuart Nibley. While the cowboys and cowgirls kicked up their heels, others rode the gondola to Sun Valley’s historic Roundhouse Restaurant for a Martini and

Caviar Party featuring nibbles crafted by Sun Valley’s head chef John Murcko. Sunday morning about four dozen people watched as Brennan Rego poured champagne vinaigrette out of a water bottle onto a bowl of greens—it wouldn’t do to use glass when you’re a river guide. “That was five-star lasagna,” said Vicki Shapiro as Idaho River Journey’s Scooter Carling and Skip Volper served up Dutch-oven lasagna and carrot cake. “Five star. That’s what you would expect to get at that lodge there,” said Mat Gershater, who was emceeing the demonstration. A true “foodie heaven” Amazingly, there was one last foodie extravaganza on the menu—a Grand Tastings menu featuring an entire array of lavender-laced items laid out by Margot Van Horn and Meridian lavendar grower Donna Anderson; a novel zucchini ribbon and basil salad offered up by Hailey chef Brent Barsotti; and an array of Sicilian bruschettas, Rubinos and green lasagna from Cacicia’s food truck. A variety of wines accompanied Galena Lodge’s lamb stew, smoked tomato soup and trout and sturgeon platter; the Chocolate Bar’s dark chocolate red chili pistachio bars; Redfish Lake Lodge’s wild cured salmon served with goat cheese mousse; and Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch’s baby bok choy spring rolls with pickled gypsy peppers and mango and Serrano chili compote, along with lamb and bacon Sloppy Joe sliders and Idaho huckleberry lavender and buttermilk panna cotta. Whoops, and don’t forget Yellow Belly’s ultra-refreshing cardamom yogurt. “Everything in here is so flavorful,” mused Lori Corbin, nutrition and fitness reporter for an ABC news station in Los Angeles. “The whole event has been awesome. A fun event, friendly people.” “Wine with breakfast, the Restaurant Walk, caviar and martinis—what’s not to like?!” said Larry Feiner.

macy of the Sun Valley Harvest Festival compared to that of Aspen’s, which “sometimes feels too big and too overwhelming.” “This festival is a confluence of events and a community that’s so active and interested in health and food, which makes it foodie heaven,” she added. “It attracts people who are well-traveled and who are seeking good food and nutrition and have got good questions. They’re not interested in whether the person doing the cooking has been on a TV show. They’re interested in what credentials the person has and what that person can do to help them get more out of what they eat.” Ottley was pleased with the way the weekend went. “This was an amazing weekend. We had a great turnout. John Murcko and Ryan Sullivan put on a fabulous show in a spectacular setting Saturday night and the 5B Party at B. Restaurant was a success, as well. I feel that we’ve finally turned the corner. We’re getting people here. Now they’re going home and telling their friends about it.” tws

Abigail Barton’s Ballerina Dreams BY JONATHAN KANE
A
bigail Barton, Wood River High School junior, carrying a 4.0 GPA and a member of National Honor Society, has a real affinity for the arts, with most of her energy channeled into ballet and photography. “Growing up in this Valley has been great,” Barton said. “It’s a really nice place and there are so many activities and a lot of art opportunities for me. The school has so many programs, like in music and the dramatic arts academy. There is also the Sun Valley Summer Symphony, two ballet schools and plays at the nexStage Theatre and at St. Thomas. There is just so much to do.” A lot of Barton’s focus has been on dance, specifically ballet, which she has been doing formally since she was five. “I always wanted to be a ballerina from the earliest age. I remember my grandparents getting me a pair of ballet shoes when I was four years old and they were the coolest things ever. I was always just a twirly and dancey person from the earliest years,” Barton said with a smile. “I just wasn’t into soccer and what the other kids were into. Actually I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t into dance.” So at a tender age she started with the Sun Valley Ballet School run by Sherry Horton. “My first memory was being packed at the bar with a lot of other girls. It was very official. I also remember getting a special leotard with a skirt that matched and I was so excited.” She first performed at six. “It was Alice in Wonderland. I was a white rose and wore a tutu. There were four of us and we danced on stage by
ourselves. I probably wasn’t nervous. I think I was more excited than anything.” The school performs The Nutcracker every other year, alternating with Alice in Wonderland in December at the nexStage. They also do a showcase in the spring that includes more than ballet. “My weekly schedule is for an hour and a half of class four times a week but it will increase because this Monday we start rehearsals for the Wizard of Oz. But on the average week I study ballet, jazz and modern, but at the Sun Valley Ballet School we mainly focus on ballet, which is my favorite. I do like dancing modern in the spring, but my main focus and love is
ballet. It teaches you a lot of discipline and focus because it is really hard to get better at it. Performance is far and away the best part of it all. Everything you’ve been working on leads to this one event. The combination of lights, costumes, makeup and the audience leads to the biggest adrenaline rush.” As to the future, Barton is not quite sure. “I want to dance through college but I’m not sure if I will pursue it professionally but I’m sure I’ll continue it as a hobby. It’s been a big part of my life and I don’t want to close any doors.” For this talented young student, doors are surely only going to open. tws

A Taste of German Fun STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
T
he hammerschlagen—a German nail-punching/beer-drinking game—came out Saturday as Sawtooth Brewery threw its first Oktoberfest in Ketchum Town Square. Beer lovers began showing up at noon for special brews filling liter-sized Oktoberfest beer mugs. And the crowd continued through the afternoon into the evening, playing games, noshing on hot German pretzels, devouring elk sausage dogs served up by Gourmet Mountain Dogs and listening to live music. The Hammerschlagen, literally known as Striking Hammer or Hammer Striking, proved a curiosity to most of those in the crowd. Dating back to the first Oktoberfest in 1810, its object is to be the first one to pound in one’s own nail. Its attraction? Losers buy the next round. Sawtooth Brewery’s head brewer Paul Holle, who got married in late June, sat exhausted but with a big smile on his face as the clock pushed 6 o’clock, watching youngsters try to build a tower with Jenga wood blocks Holle had sawed using his father-in-law’s saw. “It’s been like this since noon,” said Holle, as he looked around the crowded square. tws
PHOTOS (clockwise from top) Evan Blas tries to figure out which block he can remove from the tower to balance on top without the tower crashing down. Dave Custer kept busy serving up liter-sized mugs of beer—and smaller sizes, too. Carly Dominick, G.G. Groff and Patrick Connelly mingle during Oktoberfest.

How We Ride Nature’s Numbers BY Dave Harrison
A
s currents ebb and flow, and sometimes predictable sets of waves reach the shore, so too does human physiology and circadian rhythm depend on nature’s path of least resistance. Even the fickle stock markets rise and fall in synchronicity—an economic theory called ‘The Elliot Wave.’ Doctors prescribe riding a bicycle for diabetics and heart disease patients. An injury might require the use of a stationary bicycle for rehabilitation. Some people ride a bicycle to shed weight or may have a goal to win or simply reach the finish line. Here are some tips to ride and live well. Start slow and small. Try riding for 13 or 21 minutes and see if you feel like going longer. Use the Fibonacci number sequence to set up a performance program. It is the path of least resistance. Do your rides by numbers: 1 plus 2 equals 3. Now take the number before and add it to the next. An Italian mathematician came up with this number sequence and it turns out to be the path of least resistance. They are the most naturally occurring numbers in biology; the golden spiral, coils on a snail, branches on a tree, or number of rings on a squirrel’s tail, for instance. We have 5 fingers, 2 legs and 2 arms. All are numbers in the Fibonacci numerical sequence. It is simple math. Start with 1 + 2 and keep adding to that which came before—3,
5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, and so on to infinity. Use Fibonacci numbers for how many days you spend on and off your bike. The system will also work well for how many repetitions or how many sets to do. You can use mileage, or kilometers, or the number of minutes, or hours. The key is to be consistent and to incorporate rest days into your program. I used to rest one day for every five days of work, training, or riding. As we age, we need to rest more. Perhaps you will find that two days of rest after three days of work is best for you. Try resting for five days or eight days after a heavy training block of 13 or 21 days. I promise you a peak performance. It is the path of least resistance. Our physiology is like an alluvial fan of branching tributaries trying to reach the ocean. So too are the veins in our circulatory system. Do not fight nature’s path. Mother Nature will win and cause harm in the way of illness or injury. Ride every day if you must, but use great care as to your pace and intensity. The use of a power meter or a heart-monitoring device should also heed to the numbers in the Italian mathematician’s sequence; or you risk over-training and injury. Dave Harrison is the topranked Idaho pro mountain biker in the nation and 2013 Idaho state champion.

The ABCs of Car Care for New Drivers
I

Ask the Tech
T
he Car Care Council has compiled a list of questions to ask your technician before you have your maintenance performed. The questions cover: Oils, Filters and Fluids Belts and Hoses Brake Service TuneUp Wheel Alignment Tire Service Check Engine Light Air Conditioning Service Appearance
Oils, Filters and Fluids
What fluids will you check? Is the oil you’re putting in my car the right type for the way I drive? Is an oil filter change included with this service? When should I get my next oil change? What fluid should I change next? How often should my fluid level be checked? Will my car’s instrument panel alert me if fluids are low?
Belts and Hoses What’s the difference between a V-belt and a serpentine belt? Why does my aftermarket V-belt have notches? What are branched hoses and why might these be better for my vehicle? What is electrolytic corrosion and how did it get in my cooling system?
Brake Service Is there anything I can do to help the brakes on my car last longer? How does the work being performed eliminate the symptoms my car exhibited or my complaint? Are there any related services my car needs while this service is being performed? What does the brake warning light mean on my car’s dashboard?
Tune-Up How often does my car need a tune-up? Are there other services that need to be performed at this time? How does this work address my complaint? If the “Check Engine” or “Service Engine Soon” light comes on, is it the same as saying it’s time for a tune-up?
Wheel Alignment Is this a four-wheel alignment? How did the improper settings relate to the symptoms my car
exhibited…Poor tire wear, wandering, etc.? Are there other problems related to alignment such as worn steering and suspension parts? Has my car been road-tested to ensure that it performs properly and that my complaint has been corrected?
Tire Service
What type of tires should go on my vehicle based on my driving? What can happen if I install a set of tires having a size not recommended for my car? My car shakes at certain speeds…What causes this? Can my driving habits affect tire life? Do they have to be replaced in pairs?
Check Engine Light Does the light mean my car needs a tune-up? When checking out the cause of the light, are there any other services that need to be performed at the same time? Is it normal for the light to come on briefly when I start my car? What happens if I just ignore the light? Will the light eventually turn off by itself? Will my car pass an emissions test if the light is on?
Air Conditioning Service What happens if I continue to use my car’s A/C system, even though it’s not cooling properly? Water drips underneath my car when I use the A/C system. Is this normal? A musty odor comes out of the A/C vents at times. Can anything be done about this? My car’s A/C system seems to cool intermittently and I hear a clicking on and off from underneath the hood. What does this mean? I have an older car that still uses R-12 or Freon refrigerant. Does it make sense to switch it over to R-134a?
t’s never too early to learn the ABCs of car care, says the Car Care Council. A – Always follow a preventative vehicle maintenance plan. B – Be sure to have your car inspected when you suspect there is a problem. C – Correct the problem to help avoid the inconvenience and potential safety hazards of breaking down away from home. “Most young people can’t wait to drive, but their car care education should begin well before their parents hand over the keys,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Understanding the basics of car care before taking the wheel will help keep new drivers safer on the road.” The Car Care Council recommends that new drivers keep a free copy of its popular Car Care Guide in the glove box and learn about 10 car care inspection procedures that are an important part of any preventative vehicle maintenance plan: Check all fluids, including engine oil, power steering, brake and transmission as well as windshield washer solvent and antifreeze/coolant. Check the hoses and belts to make sure they are not cracked, brittle, frayed, loose or showing signs of excessive wear. Check the battery and replace if necessary. Make sure the connection is clean, tight and corrosion-free. Check the brake system annually and have the brake linings, rotors and drums inspected at each oil change.

Inspect the exhaust system for leaks, damage and broken supports or hangers if there is an unusual noise. Exhaust leaks can be dangerous and must be corrected without delay. Schedule a tune-up to help the engine deliver the best balance of power and fuel economy and produce the lowest level of emissions. Check the heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system as proper heating and cooling performance is critical for interior comfort and for safety reasons such as defrosting. Inspect the steering and suspension system annually including shock absorbers, struts and chassis parts such as ball joints, tie rod ends and other
related components. Check the tires, including tire pressure and tread. Uneven wear indicates a need for wheel alignment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots. Check the wipers and lighting so that you can see and be seen. Check that all interior and exterior lighting is working properly and replace worn wiper blades so you can see clearly when driving during precipitation.

Take the Scare Out of Winter Driving
W
hen the weather outside is frightful, a little advance preparation will take the scare out of winter driving, says the Car Care Council. A few preventive vehicle maintenance steps will keep you from being stranded in severe winter weather. “The thought of a breakdown, an engine not starting or otherwise being stranded is scary as it is, but those things happening in freezing winter weather adds another level of fear,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “An investment of an hour or so to have your vehicle checked will pay off and help make sure your winter driving is less frightful and more delightful.” The Car Care Council recommends the following steps for winterizing your vehicle: • Check the battery and charging system for optimum performance. Cold weather is hard on batteries. • Clean, flush and put new antifreeze in the cooling system. As a general rule of thumb, this should be done every two years. • Make sure heaters, defrosters and wipers work properly. Consider winter wiper blades and use cold weather washer fluid. Typically, wiper blades should be replaced every six months. • If you’re due for a tune-up, have it done before winter sets in. Winter magnifies existing problems such as pings, hard starts, sluggish performance or

rough idling. • Check the tire tread depth and tire pressure. If snow and ice are a problem in your area, consider special tires designed to grip slick roads. During winter, tire pressure should be checked weekly. • Check the brakes. The braking system is the vehicle’s most important safety component. • Inspect the exhaust system for carbon monoxide leaks, which can be especially dangerous during cold weather driving when windows are closed. • Check to see that exterior and interior lights work and headlights are properly aimed. • Be diligent about changing the oil at recommended intervals
as dirty oil can spell trouble in winter. Consider changing to “winter weight” oil if you live in a cold climate. Check the fuel, air and transmission filters at the same time. Motorists should also keep the gas tank at least half full at all times to decrease the chances of moisture forming in the gas lines and possibly freezing. Drivers should check the tire pressure of the spare in the trunk and stock an emergency kit with an ice scraper and snowbrush, jumper cables, flashlight, flares, blanket, extra clothes, candles/matches, bottled water, dry food snacks and needed medication. source: Car Care Council

A Battery Check Today Can Keep the Tow Truck Away
A
battery check today can keep the tow truck away, says the Car Care Council, as it advises vehicle owners to have their battery tested and replaced if necessary this fall to avoid being stranded this winter. Sooner or later all batteries have to be replaced, and excessive heat and overcharging are the two main reasons for shortened battery life. Heat causes battery fluid to evaporate, thus damaging the internal structure of the battery. A malfunctioning component in the charging system, usually the voltage regulator, allows too high of a charging rate, leading to slow death for a battery. Colder temperatures increase the thickness of the engine oil, making the engine harder to turn over and the battery work harder, leading to harder starting.
To get the most life out of a battery, the Car Care Council suggests the following: Be sure the electrical system is charging at the correct rate; overcharging can damage a battery as quickly as undercharging. If your battery is the type that needs to be topped off, check it regularly, especially in hot weather. Add distilled water when necessary. Always replace a battery with one that’s rated at least as high as the one originally specified. Keep the top of the battery clean. Dirt becomes a conductor, which drains battery power. Further, as corrosion accumulates on battery terminals it becomes an insulator, inhibiting current flow.

Four Ways to Prepare for a Thanksgiving Road Trip
T
he weather’s cooling and bears are heading for their comfy hibernation caves. But not us; we’re gearing up for the busiest travel days of the year: Thanksgiving weekend. And that means it’s time to get your car ready for colder weather and more miles on the odometer. Whether you’re headed south for the sun or through the back roads to grandma’s house, there are a few things you can do before you pack up the car to keep your focus on the journey ahead. A little preparation now can save you lots of time and money later, keep you off the side of the road and help you avoid unknown auto shops. Get up to date on regular maintenance Whether your trip is 100 miles down the road or 1,000, it will pay to get your car up to speed on all of its regular maintenance. That means taking care of any fluids that may have been neglected while you were out enjoying the summer sun. Check, change and/or top off your oil, coolant, brake and transmission fluid as needed. In the case of your oil or automatic transmission, make sure you get a high-quality filter, too. It may seem like overkill to take care of all of your fluids at once, but it’s worth it in the long run.Take a look at the car’s brakes, too. Are your rotors warped or cracked? Do they have deep grooves or are the pads worn close to their minimum clearance? Your vehicle will be experiencing harsh conditions for much longer than your daily commute to and from work, so once again it’ll pay to nip any potential problems in the bud now. These next two are easy-to-do items that can make a big differ-
ence on a long drive. First, make sure all your lights are working properly. A burnt-out bulb is a great way to get a visit from the local police department while you’re on a trip. New bulbs only cost a few dollars and are easy to install yourself or are often free when getting your vehicle serviced. The same goes for windshield wipers. If your blades are more than six months old, odds are it’s time to swap them out for new ones. Bad windshield wipers can make driving in the rain in a foreign land a nightmare. Protect the interior You can’t discount the impact weather and a long road trip can have on your vehicle either. If you’re going to spend a lot of time ducking in and out of the elements, you might want to grab some all-weather floor mats. They’re easy to clean and do a great job of keeping the muck in one place.It might seem counterintuitive to clean the inside of your car before you hit the road, but give it a chance. Pulling out any and all unnecessary items from the trunk and backseat will help with your vehicle’s fuel economy and make room for all the suitcases (and leftovers to munch on during the return trip). Making sure your windows are clean will also improve your visibility and reduce the likelihood of steamy glass. Remember, greater visibility reduces your chance of bumping someone in traffic, and nothing ruins a vacation quicker than an accident. Don’t drive on the wrong tires Go ahead and have your tires rotated and inspected, too. The last thing you need is to head off into the sunset on bald or dry rotted tires, especially if rain
is forecasted. Err on the side of caution and replace any tires that look suspect. Again, it may seem expensive at the time, but we guarantee it’ll be cheaper than having to get someone to tow your car to some no-name garage in the middle of the night for new rubber. Once you’ve made sure everything looks good, take a look at your tire pressure. With everything up to spec, you’ll get better gas mileage and your vehicle will handle and stop better.Are you headed to snowy locales? We’d recommend looking into snow tires. It depends on how long you’ll be braving the elements, but for long distances in the snow, putting winter tires on your wheels instead of chains might be a lot more comfortable for you and your family. Winter tires are made with special low temperature resilient rubber compounds and have deep treads that grip unplowed snow and ice. Even the best all-season tires have compounds that get more brittle as the temperature drops, and when that happens, the tires tend to grip less. The winter tire compound remains pliable when temperatures are low, retaining grip and keeping the car’s safety systems, like allwheel drive and anti-lock brakes, functioning properly. Maintain the coolant system Our most important tip is to take the time to get your car’s coolant system checked. Extreme temperatures and harsh conditions can knock it out easily if it’s not up to snuff. If any part of the system comes up with a shaky bill of health, swap the parts for new ones. That means having your car’s radiator pressure tested and your hoses examined for cracks or bulges.
FILE Photo
Most shops can quickly test radiators without the hassle of having to remove them from the vehicle.If you can’t remember the last time your water pump was replaced, or if your pump has more miles on it than what the manufacturer recommends, it’s time for a new one. While everything is apart, go for a new thermostat as well because you’ll save money on labor getting those two done at once. Even if everything comes
up good to go under the hood, replacing your engine’s coolant is cheap insurance against extreme temperatures. Over time, antifreeze can actually generate a weak electrical current, which can then cause oxidation and eventually failure inside of your coolant system. Keeping everything fresh inside will put less stress on your vehicle’s hardware and save you serious money in the long run. source: Car Care Council

Mean, Green Driving Machine
T
he Car Care Council suggests five easy ways to turn your car into a mean, green driving machine – for your wallet and the environment. Drive Green – Recognize that how you drive has a lot to do with fuel economy. Avoid sudden starts and stops and go the speed limit. Jerky and aggressive driving decreases your miles per gallon (MPG) and increases wear and tear on your vehicle. Minimize unnecessary miles by combining errands in one trip. Check Tire Pressure – Each year, about two billion gallons of gas could be saved if the tires on every American’s car were properly inflated. Optimal tire pressure for your vehicle is listed in the owner’s manual. Tires that are not properly inflated add rolling resistance that makes the engine work harder to move the vehicle. All of this increases fuel costs as much as three to five cents per gallon, and increases the risk of engine damage. Get a Tune-Up – Regular tune-ups, maintenance and having clean air filters will help your car pollute less and burn less gas. With a proper tune-up, you can save four percent on the cost of gas and up to 40 percent by replacing a faulty oxygen sensor. Simply changing the car’s air filter can improve efficiency by 10 percent. Lighten the Load – Get the junk out of the trunk and the stuff out of your car, with the exception of emergency items such as a spare tire, flares and a
FILE Photo
first-aid kit. Extra items weigh the vehicle down and cause an increase in gas usage. Gas Caps and Fill-Ups – Check your vehicle’s gas cap. Loose, damaged or missing gas caps cause millions of gallons of gas to evaporate into the air every year. Topping off your gas tank when filling up your car can also release harmful vapors into the environment. “Driving technique and proper vehicle maintenance can go a long way toward protecting the environment and conserving fuel. These five simple steps will help minimize the amount of pollutants from your vehicle and
keep more ‘green’ in your wallet through better fuel economy,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Vehicle owners who do their own maintenance should remember to recycle or properly dispose of fluids and other vehicle components, including used motor oil, tires and batteries.” More information about environmental awareness is included in the popular digital Car Care Guide that can be easily accessed through the council’s newly-updated website at www. carcare.org. source: Car Care Council

reat your car to a tune-up and get better gas mileage in return. According to the Car Care Council, even today’s modern vehicles need a periodic tune-up and that can save big at the pump. “Regular tune-ups are an investment that really pays off. A well-maintained vehicle is not only more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly, but performs better and is safer and more reliable,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. The council recommends a 21st Century tune-up during which the fuel, emissions and ignition systems are checked, as well as the battery, charging and starting system, and the engine mechanical and powertrain control systems. Keeping a car properly tuned can improve gas mileage by an average of 4 percent. In addition to performing a tune-up, keeping tires properly inflated improves gas mileage by 3 percent. A clean air filter can improve fuel efficiency by as much as 14 percent on

Air filters are usually inspected during an oil change, which should be performed regularly as recommended in the owner’s manual. Tire pressure should be checked monthly. White reminds motorists that many fluids and components replaced during vehicle service should be properly recycled or disposed of, including oil and oil filters, coolant, batteries, tires, and brake, transmission and power steering fluids.

Six Warning Signs Your Nose Can Recognize
FALL SPECIALS
M
ost vehicles start out with a “new car smell,” but there are other specific odors that motorists should never ignore. Identifying these suspect smells early on can help car owners be car care aware and avoid the hassle and expense of an unexpected breakdown, says the Car Care Council. “Unusual smells can be the sign of serious, and potentially costly, trouble for your vehicle. By acting quickly and making necessary repairs, you’ll be able to breathe easy knowing there is no harmful damage to your car,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. The Car Care Council recommends a sniff test of your vehicle to identify any unusual smells, including the following six warning signs: 1. The smell of burnt rubber could be slipping drive belts or misplaced loose hoses that might be rubbing against rotating accessory drive pulleys. Do not reach in if the engine compartment is hot. 2. The smell of hot oil could mean that oil is leaking onto the exhaust system. To verify the leak, look for oil on the pavement or smoke coming from the engine area. 3. The smell of gasoline is likely the sign of a gas leak in some area of the vehicle such as a fuel

injector line or the fuel tank. Any smell of fuel can result in a possible fire hazard, so immediate attention should be given. 4. The sweet smell of syrup may be a sign that your car is leaking engine coolant from a leaky component related to the car’s cooling system. Do not open the radiator cap when it is hot. 5. The smell of burning carpet could be a sign of brake trouble and a safety hazard. Have your brakes checked right away, especially if this smell is happening during normal driving conditions. 6. The smell of rotten eggs is never a good one and, if
you smell it coming from your vehicle, it could mean a problem with your catalytic converter not converting the hydrogen sulfide in the exhaust to sulfur dioxide properly. This smell can also be attributed to a poor running engine, causing the catalytic converter to become overloaded and fail due to meltdown. “When you smell any peculiar odor, you should not ignore it. Instead bring your vehicle to a professional service technician that you trust to get an informed opinion on the nature of the odor,” concluded White.’

Auto Repair: Wondering About Your Warranty?
I
t’s a common misconception that only car dealers can perform the routine maintenance and repairs on a newer vehicle that is under warranty. In fact, it is law that consumers can patronize their neighborhood repair shop or do the work themselves without violating the manufacturer’s warranty, says the Car Care Council. Consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which prohibits a manufacturer from voiding the vehicle warranty because service was done by a non-dealer. According to the FTC, “It’s illegal for a dealer to

It is also important to note that using aftermarket parts does not void the warranty.” When using a non-dealer, independent aftermarket shop to maintain your vehicle, the council strongly recommends keeping records and receipts for all maintenance that is done to the vehicle and adhering to scheduled maintenance requirements. If a warranty claim arises, these records will provide proof that maintenance has been done in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations and requirements. source: Car Care Council
Winter Driving Tips: How to Drive in the Snow In a perfect world, all roads would be dry and untrafficked. But in the real world, drivers face a wide variety of weather conditions, and when snow is added to the mix, the potential for automotive disaster can increase exponentially. Whether you venture to the ski slopes once in a blue moon or spend six months of every year in snowy climes, we’ve assembled a few crucial points to remember while braving snow-covered roads. Follow these tips, and you might even look forward to cold weather driving! Slow, Turn, Go! Dynamically speaking, a car can only do three things: accelerate, turn and brake. While it’s possible to combine those commands from the behind the wheel, vehicles are far easier to control when those actions are performed separately. Let’s say you’re approaching a sharp bend on a snowy road: first, gently apply the brakes in advance of the turn. After taking your foot off the brake, coast through the corner while turning the wheel. Only after you’ve exited the turn and straightened the steering wheel, gently accelerate. “As easy as that sounds intellectually, it’s really hard for most people to put into practice,” says Mark Cox, Director of the Bridgestone Winter Driving School. Limit Your Speed, and Think Ahead Excessive speed is the single biggest reason people lose control in the snow, and slowing down will give you enough wiggle room to correct your course in case your vehicle loses control. “It takes 4 to 10 times longer to stop in ice and snow,” explains Cox. “Adjust your speed to the conditions,” he adds, “but also remember that going too slow can be just as problematic as going too fast.” If You Start to Slide… … don’t panic! A proper response will ensure that car control is regained. If the vehicle oversteers (i.e., the back end swings out), accelerate lightly in order to transfer weight to the rear and increase traction. It may feel counterintuitive to press the gas pedal while a car is sliding, but that action can straighten out the tail-happy
yawing motion. Conversely, if the car understeers (i.e., slides forward without turning), straightening the steering and gently touching the brakes will shift more weight over the front wheels and enable the tires to “bite” again. As with all winter driving maneuvers, using a gentle hand and not stabbing the gas, brake or steering wheel is the most effective way to recover from a slide. Humans tend to target fixate. Couple that with the natural reflex to go where you’re looking, and it’s no wonder so many out-of-control cars head straight into curbs and lampposts. By training yourself to look where you want to go, your hands will follow your eyes and steer away from danger. Smooth and Easy Wins the Race Race drivers swear by smoothness when it comes to driving technique, and that practice becomes even more important in wintry conditions. “Pretend you’ve got a cup of coffee on the dashboard,” advises Matt Edmonds, Vice President of TireRack.com. “If you make sudden or abrupt movements, you’ll go from grip to no grip very quickly.” On the other hand, “[smooth inputs] will help you sense the limits of your tire’s grip before your car starts to slide.” Know Your Limits and Your Car’s Limits Becoming familiar with your car’s handling dynamics will prepare you for the unexpected. When the going gets slippery, does your car understeer (plow forward), oversteer (fishtail) or drift sideways? Weight distribution, suspension and drivetrain setups (like front-, rear- or allwheel drive) affects how your car reacts to adverse conditions. If you can’t attend a driving school and learn about vehicle dynamics from the pros, carefully explore your car’s limits in a safe area like an abandoned parking lot. Once your sense memory develops, you’ll be better prepared to handle a slide when it arrives unannounced. Don’t Rely Too Much on Technology Electronic aids like anti-lock brakes and traction control have done wonders for vehicle safety,
but icy conditions can render those features useless. Once a tire loses its mechanical grip on a slick surface, all the high-tech gizmos in the world won’t stop that vehicle from spinning out of control. Avoid the inescapable laws of physics by keeping your speed reasonable and maintaining a safe distance from cars and objects around you. Pick Your Tires Like You’d Pick Your Shoes “Some shoes are good at everything, but not great at one thing,” says Edmonds. Following that logic, you wouldn’t wear flip-flops in the rain—and likewise, you shouldn’t drive through winter snow on summer tires. Edmonds advises looking for the international symbol for winter tires, which is a snowflake on a mountain. A number of winter tire varieties exist; snowbelt states call for dedicated winter rubber which is referred to as a “studless ice and snow tire,” featuring more aggressive tread and deeper blocks. In regions where snow falls more occasionally, you might opt for so-called performance winter tires, which offer better grip under dry conditions. A Question of Chains Unless the law demands it, avoid installing chains and choose instead to invest in a solid set of winter tires. As it stands, winter tires are so effective that several provinces in Canada actually make it a legal requirement to install them during certain months of the year. California is the last U.S. state that requires chains on mountain passes, and those regulations may someday be eliminated. Keep Your Car Maintained A reliably running car can help avoid a world of complications in inclement weather. Make sure your tire pressure hasn’t dipped with the drop in ambient temperature, and your vehicle will be easier to control as a result. Install winter wiper blades in order to maximize visibility, and test your battery to make sure it can handle the challenges of cold weather cranking. Take care of your car, and it will take care of you. source: Car Care Council

deny your warranty coverage simply because you had routine maintenance or repairs performed by someone else. Routine maintenance often includes oil changes, tire rotations, belt replacement, fluid checks and flushes, new brake pads and inspections.” “Many motorists wonder if they will void their factory warranty if someone other than the dealer services their vehicle,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “The truth is that consumers can have routine repairs performed by their local independent repair shop or do the work themselves without affecting the warranty.

Hemingway Symposium Takes Peak at Tiki Culture
Locally Programmed Non-Commercial Radio Sponsors Welcome
STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK
D
avid Earle has a tiki mug shaped like Ernest Hemingway’s head. But he won’t be raising it in honor of America’s famed author this week. “Images will have to suffice, or the temptation to bring it in fully loaded would be too much. I mean, whoever heard of an empty tiki mug? And those funny little umbrellas may detract from my professional demeanor,” quipped the associate professor at the University of West Florida. What Earle will bring to the Fifth Annual Ernest Hemingway Symposium is a look at Hemingway in the 1950s and “The Old Man and the Sea” through the lens of tiki culture—that mid-century fad for exotica music, tiki bars and faux primitivism. “I argue that both this fad and Hemingway’s popularity were the logical end points of a similar fascination on the part of modernist artists in the 1920s, including Picasso, Gertrude Stein and, indeed, Hemingway himself,” said Earle. Earle, son of the late Dr. Scott Earle who wrote and photographed a book on Sun Valley’s wildflowers, was a big hit during the Hemingway festival a couple of years ago when he talked about how pulp magazines of the 1950s built up Hemingway’s macho persona until it was as legendary as Sasquatch. He’ll deliver the keynote speech at this year’s symposium at 6 p.m. Thursday at The Community Library in Ketchum. Earle’s talk, “Tiki Hemingway and the Modern Primitive,” is part of a four-day conference from Wednesday through Saturday. All events but one are free. This year’s symposium revolves around how Hemingway’s life and writing were influenced by the world in which he lived and how his writing and persona changed that world, said Sandra Hofferber, who heads up the Regional History Department located in The Community Library. The tiki culture and all those umbrella drinks—that was a subculture during the 1930s and ’40s when Hemingway was in Key West,” said Hofferber. Wood River Valley resident Brewster Moseley, meanwhile, will offer a personal look at Hemingway based on an interview that his mother Virginia Moseley conducted with Bill Horne before Horne’s death in 1984. Horne met Hemingway when the two enlisted to become ambulance drivers in Italy during World War I. They became friends during that service and then roomed together in Chicago after the war. The friendship lasted more than 40 years, said Moseley. “I’m excited about the presentation because I’m positive I’ll be

H
ere comes two of our favorite hatches of the season; Fall Baetis and Mahogany Duns! With each of these hatches comes a few particulars to keep in mind. They are to fish your fly as if it were alive and to understand the masking hatch. The Fall Baetis is a very small Blue Winged Olive. About a size 22 – 24. It is also an insect that will not sit still on the water. The abdomen of this little insect wiggles about with gusto and it’s safe to say the fish will key on this movement. The best way to imitate this is to fish an extended body fly, tie it to the line with an open loop and then use generous amounts of a powdered floatant so the fly rides on its hackle tips. Once you have this set up, you will find that the fly comes to “life” as it swings on its hackle tips from side to side, giving the appearance of a “wiggle.” The Mahogany Dun is an awesome size 16 mayfly that will get fish, which have seemingly gotten smarter all summer, to throw their inhibitions aside and eat this fly well. The key to fishing it, is seeing it. The Mahogany Dun tends to blend into the flat water and autumn light of Silver Creek in a way that makes it tough to see. Add to this the fact that the Mahogany tends to come off at the same time as the Fall Baetis. The Baetis is actually easier to see, but the fish will switch back and forth all day long. Taking Baetis as the Mahogany tends to come and go for a few minutes at a time, so it is very important that anglers pay very, very close attention to the fish they are targeting and matching whichever of the two bugs the fish is keyed on. There is nothing quite like fly fishing at the peak of the fall. The rivers are quiet, the weather is generally nice, the fish are very active and hungry and the quality of the light is inspiring. Don’t hang up the waders for the season yet! Some of the year’s best fishing is about to happen!
Happy Fishing and Hunting Everyone!

t’s hard to believe that it’s been over thirty-five years since Elvis Costello released his debut My Aim Is True; I just refuse to believe that I’m getting that old, but it’s true. In his career, Costello has experimented with country music, neo-classical, blue-eyed soul, reggae, but his forte has always been two-minute-long power pop songs with bite. He’s changed his backing band a couple of times, going from The Attractions to The Imposters, but his sound (except when changing genres) has remained the same. Now he’s teamed up with Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’s house band The Roots and released Wise Up Ghost And Other Songs, quite possibly the best album he’s done since 1982’s Imperial Bedroom. The Roots bandleader and drummer ?uestlove has helped Costello find a new sonic palate to add to his already overflowing artistic résumé. Although The Roots are best known as one of the best live hip-hop/funk bands around, they take a back seat to give Costello a groove that lets him do what he does best: create articulate, intelligent pop music for the literate listener. Songs like the opener “Walk Us Uptown” and “Tripwire” took me back to albums like This Year’s Model and Armed Forces, but with a fresher, funkier backing band. The old Costello acerbic bite is still there, it’s just a little older and wiser. At first I wondered how this collaboration came to be. Now I don’t care, I’m just so glad that it did. tws
n a Valley like ours, where animals are so cherished, there is probably not a more profound place to screen the disturbing new documentary, Blackfish. Reminiscent of the film The Cove, which dealt with the Japanese exploitation of dolphins, Blackfish takes a hard look at the inhumane treatment of killer whales—orcas—mostly by SeaWorld Entertainment, which exploits the magnificent ocean mammals for cheap entertainment dollars. As one observer in the film states, we will probably look back at these circumstances as horribly primitive. But today, as many as 45 of the creatures remain in captivity and await an uncertain fate. This fine new film by Gabriela Cowperthwaite tells their story and that of SeaWorld’s treatment of the animals by following the story of a 12,000-pound bull orca named Tilikum that has been responsible for three deaths—the most recent and horrific being that of expert trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2005. Tilikum’s story is profoundly sad. Taken from his mother at the age of two (we are told that orcas in the wild can live to be 80, while in captivity, probably 35) he is penned in a small cage at
the mercy of female orcas that viciously attack him. After being responsible for one death, Tilikum is happily sold to SeaWorld, where he is a million-dollar breeder and, unfortunately, is responsible for two more deadly attacks. Today, Tilikum makes rare appearances at the end of shows, but no longer interacts with trainers. The movie is his story, but so much more, especially because there are so many cameras rolling at these shows that we are witness to some pretty horrific incidents. In the case of Tilikum and the other whales, the reasons seem to point to a sort of madness that sets in after years of being deprived of roaming the seas at thousand-mile stretches to a life of imprisonment. The film also makes the argument that these magnificent creatures may have more evolved brains than humans. Whether or not this is true, Blackfish offers a compelling look not only at the whales, but the species that imprison them.

AMERICAN DANCE ICON, from page 1 to convey how he wanted the skaters to move. It was just such movement that attracted him to ballet as a youngster. Villella’s mother began taking him with her to his sister’s ballet class so she could keep her eye on him after he was knocked unconscious by a baseball one afternoon. Chagrined at first, the youngster found he couldn’t watch without moving. He moved to the back of the class where he started to jump with the girls until the teacher grabbed his mother. “You’ve got to get him out of here or put tights on him,” she said. “I loved the physicality, the idea that I could speak with my body,” said Villella, who earned a scholarship to the School of American Ballet in Manhattan at age 10. “Hanging out on the streets, playing sandlot ball, I learned that you spoke with your body—you established your position in the neighborhood by how physical you could be. “ Navigating a detour Villella’s father—a truck driver—wasn’t nuts about his son becoming a dancer. He insisted that his son go to college. Villella took up naval studies at the regimented, military-based campus of Maritime College where he became a welterweight boxing champ and played varsity baseball. But by his third year of college he had decided he was not going to sea—he wanted to be a ballet dancer. So he snuck out, evading curfew, to take ballet classes at night. It was worth it, Villella said, when he saw his parents standing in the wings at his first performance—in tears. “George Balanchine changed
the face of classical ballet in the world. He didn’t teach me the 19th century tradition. I just danced the way my body suggested because I was an athlete, not a prince. And my body was perfect for George Balanchine’s neoclassical approach to dance,” he said. As a soloist and principal dancer with the New York City Ballet, Villella turned the spotlight that once had been reserved for female dancers on himself. Broadway’s Jerome Robbins began crafting roles specifically for him. And he stared as the original male lead in many of Balanchine’s pieces, including the 1960 revival of Balanchine’s 1929 masterpiece, “Prodigal Son.” “Balanchine was the most remarkable man—he was the kind of guy who could talk politics with Henry Kissinger and a wonderful pianist who used to get together and play with Igor Stravinsky,” Villella recalled. “When George Balanchine choreographed a piece of work for you, he tailored it for you like a master tailor who’d made this incredible suit it fit so well.” Villella was the only American ever to be asked to dance an encore at the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow. He introduced ballet to America’s working class, appearing often on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” and such shows as “The Odd Couple” and “Guiding Light.” When a hip injury forced him to stop dancing, he and his wife of 33 years—Linda Carbonetto, a 1968 Canadian Olympian figure skater who skated with Peggy Fleming—created the Miami City Ballet, which they oversaw until last year. President Clinton presented Villella with the 1997 National Medal of Arts—the same year

he was named a Kennedy Center honors recipient.
Ice Theatre of New York—touted as America’s premier ice dancing company—will present a free show at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 2, at Sun Valley’s outdoor ice rink. The show features several Sun Valley on ice skaters, including Kim Navarro, Brent Bommentre, Joel Dear, Ty Cockrum and Natalia Zaitseva.
Taking ballet to the ice The ice skating world is nothing new for Villella. Gene Kelly once had him and figure skater Dick Button perform a piece comparing athletes and dancers. “He said, ‘Listen, I think ice skating could use some help,’ ” Villella recalled. In June Villella sat down with Ice Theatre’s artistic director Doug Webster, who choreographed Sun Valley’s ice show in 2002, 2010 and 2011, as well as Disney on Ice, Skating with the Stars and other major skating shows. For four days Webster made diagrams at Villella’s dining room table overlooking the Hudson River in New York City as Villella poured out ideas. “We sketched and sketched and sketched and sketched,” Villella recalled. “I thought it would be wonderful to collaborate with Edward in the early ’90s, but nothing happened until now,” said Webster, who lives in Sun Valley and New York. “It’s been wonderful. Edward has fallen in love with skating—he likes seeing people gliding, floating through space.” The collaboration has drawn a flurry of media interest to Sun Valley, with interview requests coming in from such publications as “The New York Times” and “Dance Magazine.” It has also brought some former stars rinkside, including
Sun Valley’s Paula Caputo, who danced with Villella and Balanchine at New York City Ballet until a foot injury forced her to retire at age 21. Villella admits his work with the skaters is not easy since he doesn’t know the vocabulary associated with skating: “So many things are different—the way they lift, for instance. And skaters don’t look in one another’s eyes—they’re focused on what’s in front of them.” But Villella believes the way he’s asked skaters to move out of their comfort zone will pay off royally next Wednesday: “The piece—it’s almost beguiling.” Sun Valley Ballet’s Sherry Horton is among those who has watched Villella go through the motions at the Y ballet studio and Sun Valley’s ice rink, his body and mannerisms bearing some resemblance to Woody Allen. “It’s been interesting to watch. I don’t know if I could translate my choreography to ice,” she said. “What a dream come true. Sun Valley is the perfect place for a residency,” said Judy Blumberg who used to skate with Webster and has been offering advice from the sidelines. “I feel I can skate with them from the sidelines. And what a wonderful thing for all my students to

watch.” Edward’s wife, Linda, who was sidelined with a broken kneecap after a collision with another skater last week, said it’s difficult for her husband to choreograph an ice show because he doesn’t understand the timing of crossovers and other moves as well as he would if he were a skater. “But the quality of what he’ll add is amazing. The ballet moves take it to another level of graceful emotion,” she said as she watched team members skate in perfect unison. Villella said he jumped at the chance to return to Sun Valley, where he had performed in a summer dance festival for two years in the 1980s. “This is a beguiling place—it boasts such a beautiful setting, the way the stars shine above. I doubt if they’ll ever be able to formulate that in another ice rink,” he said. “This city, this town, is magical,” added Linda Villella. “Every other ice rink is grey and cloudy. This place is amazing. And it’s so hard to get to it isn’t pretentious, as are so many places.” tws

Smoky Mountain Pizzeria Grill 200 Sun Valley Rd., Ketchum • 208-622-5625 • Open 7 Days a Week, Mon.-Thurs. 11am-9pm, Fri.-Sat. 11am-10 pm, and Sun. 12-9pm • smokymountainpizza.com • General Meals Prices Range: $5 to $16 • Pizza Prices Range: $4.85 to $26.75 plus extra for additional toppings BY MARGOT VAN HORN
I
remember when Smoky’s opened in the winter of 1991. It was friendly, very family-oriented, fun and casual. It was great to sit inside or outside on their lovely decks gazing at our beautiful mountains, and the pizza was great. It still is but oh my, now there is so much more! The Todd family opened the Ketchum Smoky’s as their first restaurant. Now, there are nine Smoky Mountain Pizzeria Grill restaurants — eight in Idaho and one in Sandy, Utah. When I sat down with Jon Peavey, the 12-year general manager of this Ketchum eatery, to write this article, he presented me with a full array of some of the specialties that this cozy restaurant now provides—and what an array that was. Full of color and great taste; honestly, not one of the dishes was a true pizza. “We’ve grown up over the last 21 years,” Jon told me. Yes, indeed, the minute you walk into this cozy pub-like spot, you know that is true. An additional bonus is their two free banquet rooms: the Fireside Room with a flat-screen TV that shows either sports events or can be used for small group computer presentations; and the Sun Room that seats up to 10 people for a cozy and private get-together or special celebration. Under Jon’s expert guidance, it most certainly is still one of the most friendly places to dine and kids are always welcome (the game room exhibits that), but it’s also a very adult place.

There are 14 beers from which to choose; there is a wine club to join; there is a huge variety of dishes, aside from pizza, from which to choose: various appealing appetizers, salads, calzones, burgers, sandwiches, house specialties such as chicken, salmon, vegetarian, pastas, some delicious seasonal specials and yummy desserts. Of course, let’s not forget the excellent pizza. With this you can choose one of four handmade crusts, sauce and, of course, the toppings. Most everything at Smoky’s is freshly made in-house daily. As Jon says, “I eat at Smoky’s because I know where the best food is.” Smoky’s has garnered many awards, the latest being that of the 2013 Certificate of Excellence Winner from TripAdvisor. This is an easily accessible place to dine for a leisure, lingering meal or for a fast-food grab.
Additionally, you can order to go or have it delivered to you anywhere from East Fork/Greenhorn to Elkhorn, Sun Valley and up Board Ranch. Smoky’s also caters. So, back to what Jon served me: Brie Kisses ($8.25), Crispy Chicken Thai Rolls ($8), Rustic Flatbread Kalamata Appetizers ($7.25) and Rustic Flatbread Chipotle Appetizers ($7.25), which featured their surprisingly good house-made bacon jam, and, for my beverage, one of their yummy beers on tap. As if I hadn’t had enough, for a sweet treat I had Smoky’s delectable Grand Chocolate Cake with vanilla ice cream ($7.50). WOW!!!!! That was definitely dinner and it was only 3 p.m.! So, with that said, you know where to dine next and, of course, don’t forget to say that Margot and The Weekly Sun sent tws you.

Ask the Guys
Dear Classified Guys, My son will graduate high school this year. He's never been a bad student, but he does lack motivation. He spends most of his time playing video games and watching movies. Honestly, it's hard to get him motivated. When he does do his schoolwork, like writing an essay, he does very well and even scores A's. The problem is what should he do after graduation? He can't watch movies all day. He'll need a job since I'm not sure he's going to college. Trying to help motivate him, I started reading the employment section hoping to find a job that might fit his skills. Then it hit me. He loves watching movies and is great at essays. He could be a movie critic. When I mentioned it to him, he actually got excited. The problem is I don't know how you get into a job like that. Can you make a living at it? Since this idea seems to motivate him, I need help laying out a path.

upon one of the few jobs where watching movies is a requirement. Not many professions require time

in front of the television. Carry: Motivating your children can be a difficult task for any parent. But remember that eventually he needs to work on figuring out a future for himself. That may be where continuing his education would be helpful. Cash: College is a terrific opportunity for kids to explore their interests and determine a career direction. I'm sure his video game skills will be useful in the dorms as well. Carry: Regardless of the profession your son chooses, his education is very important. In fact, college graduates earn nearly twice as much as high school graduates over the course of their lifetime. Cash: If being a movie critic
seems of interest to your son, it may be enough to encourage him to further his education. After all, the job would entail writing skills and it’s unlikely to find a movie critic without a college education. Carry: To begin, he should start writing as much as possible. Contact your local newspaper to see if they have any programs or positions where he can get involved. Then look for online websites where he can submit contributions. Anywhere he can publish some work will help to motivate his writing career. Cash: And remember, encourage him to turn off the television once in a while. After all, even critics have to take a break from watching movies.
While the annual cost of a fouryear university is expensive, there are many benefits to the cost. Unemployment rates for college graduates are significantly less than those with only a high school education. There is a significant earning difference as well. Over an adult's working life, a high school graduate will earn $1.2 million on average. Those with an associate degree average $1.6 million, but the winners are those with a bachelor degree. They earn nearly $2.1 million during their adult working career.
Technology Flaw
Between the internet, cell phones, iPods, video games and television, there are more electronic devices to entertain us than ever before. Today, children age 8 to 18 spend nearly 45 hours per week watching television, playing video games or staring at a computer screen. Studies also show that children who watch three or more hours of television a day have a higher likelihood of becoming obese. So maybe this week, it would be a good idea to put down the remote and get outside for some fresh air. •

Sometimes my daughter needs a little motivation. She was having a hard time figuring out what to do for her English report. When I found her slumped on the sofa, I thought I would try to encourage her to do some research at the library. Reaching into my wallet, I pulled out what I thought was my library card and told her, "Take this and see if you can do some research for your project." To my surprise she immediately jumped off the sofa and ran for the door. "Wow," I said. "I've never seen you so motivated before." "Well," she said holding up the card I mistakenly gave her. "You never gave me your credit card before!" (Thanks to Christine K.)
